* Here's the next chapter, I think it was in a timely fashion, but what do I know? YOU'RE the readers? Was it quick enough? Whatever, I'm going for another character's perspective this chapter, hope it doesn't disappoint. READ AND REVIEW!

Leonard stood there in the hallway. He was holding his glasses, one of the lenses had popped out and he needed to get his old pair. But he was seriously considering just forgetting about it and wandering around unable to see because if he went in there, Sheldon would be there. And when Sheldon was hurt as he was now, he was needy and whiny and Leonard did not want to deal with that right now. He cared about his friend, but listening to his complaints wouldn't help either of them.

Leonard took a deep breath, and entered. So far, so good. No one was in the living room that he could see (which wasn't much), so hopefully Sheldon was in bed. Leonard felt his way slowly across the room and had to catch himself so that he wouldn't trip up the step. He got his spare glasses, and once able to see, he felt a heavy guilt setting in. He had to at least check on Sheldon.

He stood contemplating for another minute or so and finally giving in, he turned towards Sheldon's room, cursing quietly to himself, "...Dammnit."

He hesitated with his knuckles an inch from the door, realizing that he could just take a peek in and get away free if Sheldon was sleeping. He opened the door slowly, looked inside. A curious sight met his eyes.

Sheldon was sleeping, and so was... Amy Farrah Fowler... pressed against his chest... his arms around her... they were... cuddling.

Leonard stood there, frozen in confusion. Not even Leonard was allowed in Sheldon's room. Sheldon had freaked out when Penny had to go in there, and Leonard was allowed in only under certain circumstances. But here was Amy, and not only was she in there, but she was on his bed, and they were cuddling. None of this made any sense.

"'m ...ver...y... fahh... emmmy..."

Leonard leaned in instinctively as he heard Sheldon mumble in his sleep. He hoped Sheldon might say it again and clarify because what Leonard heard was gibberish.

"I'm...faahhnn...d'yoo...emmmy..."

Leonard took a careful step forward, hoping Sheldon might repeat it.

"I'm... very... fond... of you... Amy."

Leonard stood there in shock. I'm very fond of you, Amy.

That was the most compassion Leonard had ever heard from Sheldon... ever.
